Lost on the Hard Drive #1 - The Hooterville Trolley
There are many good things about the easy
access to music that we enjoy today. I want
it. I got it. Quick as that. I can order a
physical album without leaving my keypad, I
can stream entire catalogues in any number of
ways, or I can purchase and download
individual tunes or complete recorded works
in seconds. The problem with the latter comes
when a stray tune hits the hard drive, is
played and enjoyed for a while, before being
lost in an anonymous folder on my computer.
Which happens a lot.

Never heard of this before, though I feel I should have! - very groovy / funky / psychy! And a great film with it too.
From 1968 apparently, a fact I was sceptical about for a while, I seem to remember. It's almost too good to be that unknown.
